OL Tyrone Crowder of Hamlet, NC will make his Clemson official visit this weekend but won't stay the entire 48 hours. Crowder's brother Charles McManus will be driving the family to Clemson. They will arrive Friday afternoon and will leave sometime Saturday because of obligations back home Sunday. McManus said Clemson recruiter Dan Books visited with Crowder Wednesday. McManus said his brother is looking forward to this trip. "Once he goes down and gets that warm and fuzzy feeling and that good vibe from the coaches, he'll be a little closer to making a decision," he said. Georgia remains a player but no official visit has been set. "I think he wants to visit but I'm a little done (with recruiting) and I want him to make a decision and be done," McManus said. "Nobody is pursuing him as hard as Clemson." McManus does not expect a commitment this weekend and feels Crowder will way until Signing Day. And that announcement might be made at the ESPNU studio in Charlotte.
